''Veritasium'' is an English-language educational science channel on YouTube created by Derek Muller in 2011. The videos range in style from interviews with experts, such as 2011 Physics Nobel Laureate Brian Schmidt, to science experiments, dramatisations, songs, and—a hallmark of the channel—interviews with the public to uncover misconceptions about science. it had 219 uploads, 3,047,028 subscribers and 203,156,678 total views. == Videos == ''Veritasium'' videos have received critical acclaim. At Science Online 2012, “Mission Possible: Graphene” won the Cyberscreen Science Film Festival and was therefore featured on ''Scientific American'' as the video of the week. A video debunking the common misconception that the moon is closer than it is was picked up by CBS News. The most successful ''Veritasium'' videos are the two that demonstrate the physics of a falling Slinky toy, with both videos receiving over a million views. The videos explain the following: when a slinky is held dangling vertically and then released, it can be observed in slow motion that the bottom end does not begin to move until the entire slinky has collapsed, making it look as if the slinky was defeating gravity (i.e. floating). This counter-intuitive phenomenon inspired a wealth of media coverage, including the ''Toronto Star'', NPR, and a segment on the BBC show ''QI''. Muller also created a segment on the topic for the Australian Broadcasting Corporation show ''Catalyst''. Muller has a second channel, ''2veritasium'', which he uses for things such as behind-the-scenes footage and for communicating with viewers. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Veritasium」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
